The A to Z of A/C Plasmids
Published 2015-04-21Plasmids belonging to incompatibility groups A and C (now A/C) were among the earliest to be associated with antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. A/C plasmids are large, conjugative plasmids with a broad host ...Open AccessArticle -
The 'absolute existence' of phlogiston: the losing party's point of view.
Published 2011-01-01Long after its alleged demise, phlogiston was still presented, discussed and defended by leading chemists. Even some of the leading proponents of the new chemistry admitted its ‘absolute existence’. We demonstrate that ...Open AccessArticle -
Accelerated Protein Synthesis via One-Pot Ligation-Deselenization Chemistry
Published 2017-05-11Peptide ligation chemistry has revolutionized protein science by facilitating access to synthetic proteins. Here, we describe the development of additive-free ligation-deselenization chemistry at β-selenoaspartate and ...Open AccessArticle -
The acquisition of conditioned responding
Published 2011-01-01This report analyzes the acquisition of conditioned responses in rats trained in a magazine approach paradigm. Following the suggestion by Gallistel, Fairhurst and Balsam (2004), Weibull functions were fitted to the ...Open AccessArticle -
Adaption of Distance Learning to Continue the Academic Year Amid COVID-19 Lockdown
Published 2021This work investigates the use of distance learning in saving students' academic year amid COVID-19 lockdown. It assesses the adoption of distance learning using various online application tools that have gained widespread ...Article -
Alignment between seafloor spreading directions and absolute plate motions through time
Published 2016-02-28The history of seafloor spreading in the ocean basins provides a detailed record of relative motions between Earth's tectonic plates since Pangea breakup. Determining how tectonic plates have moved relative to the Earth's ...Open AccessArticle -
Analysis of pCERC7, a small antibiotic resistance plasmid from a commensal ST131 Escherichia coli, defines a diverse group of plasmids that include various segments adjacent to a multimer resolution site and encode the same NikA relaxase accessory protein enabling mobilisation
Published 2017-01-01The ampicillin resistance plasmid pCERC7, carrying transposon Tn2 with an IS4 insertion, was detected in the draft genome of a commensal Escherichia coli isolate. The genome data also revealed that this isolate belongs to ...Open AccessArticle -
Anti-Tubercular bis-Substituted Cyclam Derivatives: Structure-Activity Relationships and In Vivo Studies
Published 2018-03-20We recently reported the discovery of non-toxic cyclam-derived compounds that are active against drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this paper we report exploration of the structure-activity relationship for ...Open AccessArticle -
Arabinosylation Modulates the Growth-Regulating Activity of the Peptide Hormone CLE40a from Soybean
Published 2017-09-21Small post-translationally modified peptide hormones mediate crucial developmental and regulatory processes in plants. CLAVATA/ENDOSPERM-SURROUNDING REGION (CLE) genes are found throughout the plant kingdom and encode for ...Open AccessArticle -

Are any populations ‘safe’? Unexpected reproductive decline in a population of Tasmanian devils free of devil facial tumour disease
Published 2018-01-01Context. Conservation management relies on baseline demographic data of natural populations. For Tasmanian devils (Sarcophilus harrisii), threatened in the wild by two fatal and transmissible cancers (devil facial tumour ...Article -
The arguments of associations
Published 2010-01-01This chapter considers associative solutions to “non‐linear” discrimination problems, such as negative patterning (A+ and B+ vs AB‐) and the biconditional discrimination (AB+ and CD+ vs AC‐ and BD‐). It is commonly assumed ...Open AccessBook chapter -
An Assessment of the Validity of the Gamblers Belief Questionnaire
Published 2019-05-31Cognitive distortions in gambling are irrational thoughts that cause an individual to overestimate their level of control over the outcome of the game and diminish the role of chance. Due to their strong relation to gambling ...Open AccessArticle -
Association between COVID-19 cases and international equity indices
Published 2021This paper analyzes the impact of COVID-19 on the populations and equity markets of 92 countries. We compare country-by-country equity market dynamics to cumulative COVID-19 case and death counts and new case trajectories. ...Article -
An attention modulated associative network.
Published 2010-01-01We present an elemental model of associative learning that describes interactions between stimulus elements as a process of competitive normalization. Building on the assumptions laid out in Harris (2006), stimuli are ...Open AccessArticle -
Attentional Changes During Implicit Learning: Signal Validity Protects a Target Stimulus from the Attentional Blink
Published 2009-01-01Participants in two experiments performed two simultaneous tasks: one, a dual-target detection task within a rapid sequence of target and distractor letters; the other, a cued reaction time task requiring participants to ...Open AccessArticle -
Australian-Antarctic breakup and seafloor spreading: Balancing geological and geophysical constraints
Published 2019-01-01The motion of diverging tectonic plates is typically constrained by geophysical data from preserved ocean crust. However, constraining plate motions during continental rifting and the breakup process relies on balancing ...Open AccessArticle -
